the first 3D modelling software that didn't flashbang me with an array of controls. very peak.
не могу импортировать текстуры, она просто не отображается, что делать не знаю
like simple blender. i like. me like.
itch.ioで購入して何度か使っていました。手軽にピクセルの3Dモデリングができて楽しいです!!!
I have never fallen in love with anything faster than I did this program Its so intuitive and simple but can still actually do cool stuff if youre good I've never done ANYTHING with 3d models before and im able to figure everything out basically immediately (it also helps im a big fan of the way low-poly stuff looks) If steam had a star system for ratings id give this program a 5/5 and then complain that im not allowed to give it 6
I didn't like that I was bound to few limited colors, But that wasn't a big deal. Maybe in the future. But how do I open the texture editor in the app? it's hard to create texture in an external app and when I export it to picoCAD, the colors change, so I want to at least make the texture with the colors that the app accepts. I loved the app overall, FIrst app I purchased in my life,.
So fun do model and texture with this, super simple but powerful!!
Ребят, подскажите пожалуйста, создал 3д модель, сохранил в текстовом формате, при следующем запуске пытаюсь этот текстовый файл загрузить в приложение чтобы дальше работать с ним, но в итоге приложение автоматически выключается? И второй вопрос как импортировать в obj формат?
Great software to make little dudes in. Ok ok ok I'll be somewhat serious: This is a great piece of software to use if you like more traditional CAD modeling but you want to make more creative models. Oh, and my one complaint (no texture editing) is getting fixed in picoCAD 2 so I can't complain about it here.
